Syntax
'Declaration
 
Public Property EditAsType As Type
public Type EditAsType {get; set;}
Remarks

This might be used with a cell whose underlying datatype is 'string' or 'object' but where it should be edited as another type, e.g. a DataTime or double.

Refer to the Editors topic in the Developer's Guide for an explanation of editors.

Refer to the Editing Cell Values topic in the Developer's Guide for an explanation of how editing works.

Note that if you need to set more than one of EditAsType, EditorType and EditorStyle properties, you may want to use the SetEditorSettings method to set them all at once for better performance as it updates the CellValuePresenter associated with the cell only once.
